In all energy transfers, if no energy leaves or enters the system, then the potential energy will always be less.

If f(x) = x2 - 3x + 1 and f(2 a) = 2f(a) then a is equal to

loris [4]

For these question, it has two separate equations: 2f(a) and f(2a) .

For f(2a) equations its x=2a, so you must substitute 2a into the f(x) equation

For 2f(a), it means the two time of f(a) equation with x=a, so you substitute a inti f(x) equation first, then you multiply it by 2.

A 65kg person throws a 0.045kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 30m/s. A second person, with a mass of 60kg, catches the

asambeis [7]

Answer:

v₁ = 2.48m/s, v₂ = 0.02m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p must be conserved. p = mv

1) First person throwing the snow ball. The momentum before the throw:

p = (65kg + 0.045kg) * 2.5 m/s

The momentum after the throw:

p = 65kg * v₁ + 0.045kg * 30m/s

Solving for the velocity v₁ of person 1:

v₁ = ((65kg + 0.045kg) * 2.5 m/s - 0.045kg * 30m/s) / 65kg = 2.48m/s

2) Second person catching the ball. The momentum before the catch:

p = 0.045kg * 30m/s + 60kg * 0m/s

The momentum after the catch:

p = (60kg + 0.045kg) * v₂

Solving for velocity v₂ of person 2:

v₂ = 0.045kg * 30m/s / (60kg + 0.045kg) = 0.02 m/s

The illustration in figure below shows a uniform metre rule weighing 30 N pivoted on a wedge placed under the 40 cm mark and car

Nitella [24]

Answer:

W = 30 N

Explanation:

Applying the summation of torques about the wedge for equilibrium, taking the clockwise direction as negative. Since the ruler is balanced horizontally about the wedge. Therefore, the summation of all torques acting about the wedge must be equal to zero.

$(70\ N)(40\ cm - 10\ cm)-(30\ N)(50\ cm-40\ cm)-(W)(100\ cm - 40\ cm) = 0\\W(60\ cm) = (70\ N)(30\ cm)-(30\ N)(10\ cm)\\\\W = \frac{1800\ N.cm}{60\ cm}$
